A podcast party where we gossip about music theory's deepest, darkest secrets… and you're invited!

Short explanation: Stories, questions, and answers about/from people recovering from the utopia/dystopia that was/is getting a diploma from an accredited academic institution. Ask our crew anything about how to survive and thrive before, during, after, and in-between the student era(s) and we'll talk about our perspectives, how we stayed sane while achieving that (or not), and any other random tangents that may occur. It's like asking your older sibling a question and then before you know it an hour went by. But I promise we'll actually answer the question. If you want to challenge me on how well I can keep that promise, submit a question to arsquadpod@gmail.com. Long explanation:Were you coerced into drinking from the academic firehose for more than half your life? You may be entitled to compensation. Is said compensation going to be enough to survive as an adult off of? Maybe. You can go back and exchange more firehose time for more money. Will you actually make more money? Maybe.Is that actually better? Probably yes, but someone has to care about how much you drank from the firehose and what else you were doing while doing that for you to get that benefit. So I guess still maybe. How do you get someone to care about that? I don't know. I heard that being related to someone whose great^4 grandfather owned a railroad and/or serendipitously saving their niece's friends' emotional support peacock from being eaten by alligators on a California golf course helps.Did you find that above sequence unhelpful? So did we. School sucks sometimes. Trying to adjust to being a regulation adult after all you've known is school is underratedly difficult. Let's talk about it. The Academic Recovery Squad is here for your questions! Unfiltered takes on (student) life from current and former students hacking it through/recovering from the undergrad and grad school experience. Ask us anything at arsquadpod@gmail.com.
